Speedway, Ind. — Will Power kept the momentum from yesterday’s pole-winning qualifying time going all day long to win today’s IndyCar Grand Prix at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
The fourth annual event saw zero caution laps and only four lead changes, all between Will Power and Helio Castroneves. The fastest lap of the race was turned by Joseph Newgarden on lap 68 at 126.539 mph. That didn’t help the young American perform as well as his teammates, though. He drove the only Team Penske entry failing to crack the top ten.
Following Power across the finish line were Scott Dixon, and Ryan Hunter-Reay, bringing three different teams to the podium. The pair broke up a Penske Party at the front of the pack, with Simon Pagenaud and Helio rounding out the top 5.
Having won the GP pole, and the race itself, Power has now won two of the four biggest prizes in the Month of May at Indianapolis. He now sets his sights on the famed two-and-half mile oval and the 101st running of The Indianapolis 500.
